Legacy

The Anglo-German Foundation Lecture Series (2010-2015)

The Trustees of the Foundation have made a grant to the British Academy to establish a lecture series to commemorate and continue the work of the Foundation. It is anticipated that the first lecture will be held in the autumn of 2010. The first lecture was given by Professor Sir Tony Atkinson in January 2011, and was entitled ‘Britain, Germany and Social Europe 1973-2020’. The next lecture will be given by Professor Carl Christian von Weizsäcker on 31 January 2012.
For an invitation, or for full details (and texts) of past and future lectures, please send an email or visit the British Academy website.

The first two books in the OUP/AGF book series based on the research initiative ‘creating sustainable growth in europe’ have now been published. They are:Environmental Tax Reform: a policy for green growth, edited by Paul Ekins and Stefan Speck; and Converging Worlds of Welfare? British and German social policy in the 21st century, edited by Jochen Clasen. For more information or to order copies please visit the OUP website at http://ukcatalogue.oup.com
